SYNCON® TURBINE OIL

SYNTHETIC PAO-BASED TURBINE OIL

Phillips 66® Syncon Turbine Oil is a premium quality, synthetic lubricant developed for use in land-based gas turbines operating over a wide temperature range, where the manufacturer calls for a synthesized hydrocarbon (SHC) or PAO based turbine oil.

SYNCON® TURBINE OIL

Features & Benefits

  • Outstanding oxidation resistance and thermal stability at high temperatures
  • Excellent low-temperature fluidity
  • High viscosity index and very low pour point for use over a wide temperature range
  • Low volatility for lower oil consumption and less makeup oil
  • Protects against wear
  • Protects against rust and corrosion
  • Good foam resistance
  • Extended service intervals compared with conventional mineral oil-based lubricants

    Note: For more information on compatibility with seals, paints and plastics, please call our Technical Support Hotline.

Applications

  • Land-based gas turbines
